Mongolia Compact - Energy and Environment - Stove subsidy only
Summary:
MCC’s $268.9 million Mongolia Compact (2008-2013) funded the Energy and Environment Project (EEP) which included the $33.8 million Energy Efficient Innovation Facility Activity under which the energy efficient stove subsidy was implemented. This program was based on the theory that subsidies and awareness campaigns would motivate more than 100,000 households to purchase and use energy efficient stoves. This switch was expected to improve health by reducing air pollution and easing energy-related economic burdens through reduced fuel and health care expenditures.
